Golden-crowned Kinglets

Rocky's recent post of the same species had me digging through my archives to see what shots I had of them. Here are perhaps the two best that I have, both in September, the first from 2017 and the second from 2016.

Thank you. I appreciate your taking the photos time to comment. I see by your gear that you have a 7D. When I shot with one, ISO 800 was about my cut line. The Mark II version is somewhat more forgiving. You’ll notice my shutter speeds were fairly low as was the aperture on the second shot. So, it’s all a trade off in low light conditions. Good luck!
